The master BEDROOM, w/ queen bed opens directly out to the water views....as does the second queen bedroom.

The covered sandstone terrace with BBQ , WOOD FIRED pot belly & OUTDOOR DINING is the spot to be on a balmy afternoon.

Fantastic property!We loved our stay, the house is terrific, well equipped & has everything we needed. Being on the river is a real treat. We really enjoyed it & so did our dogs. We would love to come back & explore even more of the river & surrounds.
